What would you do to rest players? and Who?

[stamfordram]

Roos
Christie
Shotton
Keogh
Naylor
Mascarell
Dawkins
Coutts
Bryson
Calero
Best

Think he will try to use the regular subs from the start (ie Roos , Naylor , Calero , Best , Dawkins)

Think Bryson will have a runout after injury and Shotton after being left out.

Ward is an interesting one - going to have to try him sooner or later but are the 'old hammys' up to it in the Arctic conditions?

Concerned that Best is once again our back up striker but we may have a replacement by then.

Will be there on Saturday but have to confess not really bothered by FAC this year - we don't need any distractions.

Ella - is Bennett available?

My bad Stamford {as they say} totally forgot about Coutts but agree he should be in. Not sure about Bennett...did he play for Bradford in the earlier FA Cup rounds? Agree with you...I'm not bothered about progress. Biggest cliche I know but the League is so no. 1 priority for us.

Thought Bennett was injured but maybe wrong.

Not sure what we do with Ward - needs a run eventually but my heart is in my mouth every time he sprints. Slightly tempered by the fact that Ibe and Russell are going so well that we are not really missing Jamie.

Probably win with a Best hat-trick (pigs taking flight as I type)

That's lovely and radical; I don't think he'll go that far but it's a nice idea.

And me. Should get through with that team but not botthered about the cup anyway, I think, on reflection, the Chelsea tie made the team take their eye off the league hence our bad performances before. Don't want that happening again.
